Title: Method for determining a candidate cell for an active set
Inventor: SALONAHO OSCAR
IPC: H04W36/18
Filed: 2000-09-20
Abstract: A method (200, 300, 400) according to the invention is a method for determining a condidate cell for an active set, where the quality factor of each cell in the active set is determined (202), a quality factor of a test cell is determined (203), and the test cell is accepted (205) as a candidate cell for the active set if an acceptance criterion is fulfilled. The method is characterized in that the acceptance criterion is selected (201) so that for a certain first quality factor of a test cell and for a certain first set of quality factors, consisting of quality factors of the cells in a first active set, the acceptance criterion has the same value as for a certain second quality factor of a test cell and for a certain second set of quality factors, consisting of quality factors of cells in a second active set, when the first quality factor is equal to the second quality factor multiplied with any finite number and the first set of quality factors is the same as a set formed of the quality factors belonging to the second set of quality factors multiplied with the same finite number.  The invention relates also to an arrangement, to a mobile station and to a network element where decisions about accepting a cell as a candidate cell for the active set are done.
Patent CA-2387102-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ELSEY NICHOLAS J
IPC: H04M3/36
Filed: 2002-05-21
Abstract: In an arrangement where calls are directed to different call centers, each call center based on selected metric measures determines whether an incoming call is an "overflow" call to be rerouted to an alternate call center. These metric measures may include, e.g., the number of operators in the call center answering calls, the number of calls in queue to be answered, etc. Once an overflow call is identified, the call center reserves an outbound communication channel in anticipation of rerouting the call, and transmits a call rerouting request to a call routing server. In accordance with the invention, the server identifies an appropriate alternate call center for receiving the overflow call, and communicates routing information including an identity of the alternate call center to the overflow call center. The latter based on the received routing information transfers the call to the appropriate alternate call center.

Title: Selective catalytic reduction of no, enabled by side stream urea decomposition
Inventor: CUMMINGS WILLIAM E JR
IPC: B01D53/90
Filed: 2001-12-03
Abstract: A preferred process arrangement utilizes the enthalpy of the flue gas, which can be supplemented if need be, to convert urea (30) into ammonia for SCR. Urea (30), which decomposes at temperatures above 140 °C, is injected (32) into a flue gas stream split off (28) after a heat exchanger (22), such as a primary superheater or an economizer. Ideally, the side stream would gasify the urea without need for further heating, but, when heat is required it is far less than would be needed to heat either the entire effluent (23) or the urea (30). This side stream, typically less than 3% of the flue gas, provides the required temperature and residence time for complete decomposition of urea (30). A cyclonic separator can be used to remove particulates and completely mix the reagent and flue gas. This stream can then be directed to an injection grid (37) ahead of SCR using a blower (36). The mixing with the flue gas is facilitated due to an order of magnitude higher mass of side stream compared to that injected through the AIG in a traditional ammonia - SCR process.

Title: Microwave heating apparatus
Inventor: FAGRELL MAGNUS
IPC: B01J19/12
Filed: 2001-02-26
Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for heating a sample, such as chemical reaction mixtures, whose dielectric properties varies during the heating process. In particular, the present invention relates to a microwave heating apparatus comprising a microwave generator, a waveguide for guiding the generated microwaves to an applicator, and a deflector formed by a closed loop defining a plane, said deflector having an inherent resonance frequency and a thickness in a direction normal to said plane, the deflector being rotatable around an axis being at least substantially parallel to said plane, the deflector being positioned in the waveguide so as to form a resonant cavity with the sample and the waveguide applicator. The resonance conditions of the resonant cavity and the coupling factor of radiation from the waveguide to the cavity are easily adjustable by rotation of the deflector.  The resonance conditions and the coupling factor can be adjusted in response to the dielectric properties of the sample in order to optimise the amount of absorbed power and thereby obtain control of the sample heating process.

Title: Architecture and run-time environment for network filter drivers
Inventor: LIU FENGFEN
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2002-12-04
Abstract: Filtering data packets in a manner that promotes efficient flow of data through a communication path. A filter stack includes one or more filter instances that may filter data packets that pass through the filter stack. The filter stack is associated with one or more protocol stacks that function in communication paths between a computing device and a network. When filtering instances are inserted to or removed from a filter stack, associated protocol stacks may remain capable of transferring data. An abstract interface facilitates inserting and removing filter instances by  passing data to filter drivers that create filter instances. A filter driver may create multiple filter instances. Filtering operations associated with filter instances may be bypassed based on the direction of data flow, control flow, and characteristics of packets.
